Preseed, Softcups, Progesterone Cream, B6...BFP

I'm not usually one to share random info, but just in case someone might benefit:I weaned my daughter a few months ago, and we ttc for 2 months, but due to school had to take a break and then had this month (and only this month) to ttc again.Apart from lots of prayer, I feel that these things helped us especially since my cycle was still not yet regular and I ovulated on CD19 (giving me what should have only been a 9 day luteal phase as my cycles were still only 28 days). This month I took 100mg B6 everyday starting day 1. We used Preseed on the days we BD (after positive OPK) and immediately placed Instead softcups for 12 hours after BD. Beginning the day after I ovulated I used natural progesterone cream and will continue using it until I wean myself off at around 12 weeks pregnant.I know everyone has different issues and some much more complex, but I truly feel that even though 3 months ago I had a 5-7 day luteal phase these methods allowed for it's correction resulting in a BFP at 10 dpo!!

Yes, I took 100mg in addition to my prenatals. I've been taking the gummy vitamins from Target. I will get prescription vitamins from my Dr. as soon as I go but the gummies are taste great and never make me sick. My B6 is from Wal-Mart (whatever their supplement brand is). I also take 3 fish oil pills daily, but did this prior to ttc and will keep doing it throughout the pregnancy just because it's good for you. Just have to watch the mercury.The softcups I got are called Instead. I got them at Wal-Mart, but not all stores have them. You can get them online, too. A bit pricey, but worth it. I like them because while TTC I don't get up and use the bathroom after BD so I feel gross all night TMI I know, but you know what I'm saying! These prevent that!! Best wishes in your TTC journey

I use a menstrual cup for AF. Â These softcap things sound a little like that. Â Are the disposable? Â Do you think any menses cup would work to put in after? Â I almost think it could make it harder. Â My cup holds on to the cervix. Â Do the soft caps do that or just sit inside?? Â Thanks for the info andÂ CONGRATS on your cycle!!

OK wow, just answered my own questions. Â It doesn't really hook around the cervix like my Diva cup does. Â I can see how it could help. Â I would never want to use it for AF, but for BD, I might look into this.

I HATE that gross feeling all night. Â Yuck. Â I often put a towel between my legs, but this would be better.

Thanks for sharing.DL
